The Political Machinations of Daw Suu Kyi to earn a Livelihood
************************************************************************
U Kyi Maung and U Tin Oo of the NLD went to Daw Suu
Kyi s house on University Avenue at 9 a.m in the morning of 23
November, 1996. At 2 in the afternoon U Aung Shwe joined
them and soon after Daw Suu Kyi and the three of them left her
residence, saying that they were going to call on NLD Executive
Committee member U Lun Tin who was ill. They made their
departure at 3:30 pm, apparently to go to U Lun Tin s house in
Yankin.
At the time, about 100 NLD members had taken up positions
in various restaurants and food stalls near the cross roads adjoining
the Saya San Bazaar (Goodliffe Bazaar). In addition, a car with
diplomatic registration number plate (Dip 16 / 22 ) of the Australian
Embassy and some embassy staff, embassy staff of the British
Embassy Miss Tiffany White as well as about 20 foreign
correspondents were waiting in the vicinity with cameras and video
cameras ready.
They had been waiting since 3 p.m. Daw Suu Kyi left U Lun
Tin s house at about 4:20 p.m. and without informing the security
official on duty left abruptly for the place where some NLD
members and foreign correspondents had gathered to wait. She
met these people for 10 minutes and then left to go home.
This incident was a prearranged plot by Daw Suu Kyi. It is
clear that this busy and bustling place near the Saya San Bazaar,
which was in no way related to either the NLD party or Daw Suu
Kyi, had been deliberately chosen as their rendezvous. Having
previously informed the correspondents and the embassies, she
purposely went to this crowded area to make it appear as if
thousands of people had been waiting for her arrival. She could
thus broadcast this bit of prefabricated news to the world to
stimulate interest in her. It is clear that some western embassies in
Myanmar and foreign correspondents have thus been exploited by
Daw Suu Kyi in her own interest.
If some sort of fracas had broken out in the crowd, it is clear
that she would blame it on the government and further try to
exacerbate the situation.
The above account clearly shows that Daw Suu Kyi had
deceived the security official to go to the place where some NLD
members had gathered by prearrangement, to incite mass unrest
among the people. That she had also contrived to set up this plot
in cohesion with the embassies and foreign correspondents
concerned is clear. If the situation had been further aggravated
she would then have made false accusations and tried to vilify the
Government s dignity and honour. This would have stimulate the
interest of the foreign media in her which would then reward her
with cash prizes,
With the incitement of some western powers, she has
fabricated many such devious plots and thus has won awards worth
millions of dollars. Her husband and sons are now living in the lap
of luxury from her earnings from such devious tricks and they
now do not do a stroke of work. They live off her political earnings.
